Pressure To Thrust Formula
The following formula is used to calculate thrust from pressure.
T = P * A
- Where T is the thrust (N)
- P is the pressure (N/m^2)
- A is the area (m^2)
To calculate thrust from pressure, multiply the pressure by the area.
How is pressure converted to thrust?
Thrust is a unit of force, and pressure is a unit of force per area, so to convert the pressure to a unit of force you must multiply by the area.
How to calculate thrust from pressure?
Example Problem:
The following example outlines how to calculate thrust from pressure.
First, determine the total pressure. In this example, the total pressure is measured to be 500 N/m^2.
Next, determine the total area that pressure is acting on. In this case, the total area is calculated to be 20 m^2.
Finally, calculate the thrust using the formula above:
T = P * A
T = 500 * 20
T = 10,000
